How Does Stress Get Stored in My Body?

When a traumatic event occurs in life i.e. accident, loss of loved one, and the number of messages that our body receives is too overwhelming, we create tension to protect ourselves.  

Take a car accident for instance.  When someone gets into a car accident, every single cell, tissue, organ, body part moves on impact.  All these movements are all registered in your body.  Now, because there are so many signals at one time, your body does a triage system where the most important for your survival will register first.  So, when the ambulance came to check on you, the paramedics will ask what hurts.  At that moment, they may say their head.  The brain is one of the most vital organs for survival so it would register first.  So, they are taken away to the hospital for further examination.  

A week goes by after the accident and suddenly, they notice that their right knee is hurting.  It occurs to them then that their knee also hit the dashboard during the accident.  Had their body known this the entire time?  Yes, yet the knee wasn’t as critical as the brain for survival so the body ignored it until a later time.

When your body has too many signals to handle, it will choose what you need in the moment for survival.  This can also occur for cases of emotional or mental trauma.  Certain feelings will be experienced first that are needed the most to defend yourself i.e. anger and then later, other emotions may creep in.  The emotions that are developed are for moving away from things. i.e. danger, fear.  

Increasing Your Range of Emotion

Imagine that when you were 6 years old, I gave you a box of 6 crayons.  Whenever you coloured, you would only see the world through those crayons.  Let’s say for you 7th birthday, I gave you a box of 64.  You now have a whole new world.  If you currently respond to the world in 2 emotions, anger and fear, whenever something happened to you, you could only respond with anger and fear. 

Now, what if we gave you angry, irritated, annoyed and bothered?  Now, you can choose any of these emotions to experience your world.  On the other side, instead of good, how about exceptional, outstanding, joy, gratitude, benevolence?  The more range of emotion you can in your body, the more range of motion you have.  Emotion equals motion.
